Frequently Asked Questions - SWRHK-65S CRUX

What is the CRUX SWRHK-65S module used for?

It retains factory features like steering wheel controls, auxiliary input, and antenna in Hyundai and Kia vehicles when installing an aftermarket radio.

How do I set the DIP switches for my aftermarket radio?

Refer to the DIP switch chart in the manual. For example, for Pioneer, set DIPs 1-4 to OFF, OFF, ON, ON. Always check your radio's manual for SWC programming.

Which vehicles are compatible with the SWRHK-65S?

It fits many Hyundai and Kia models from 2007-2014, including Accent, Azera, Elantra, Santa Fe, Soul, Optima, Sorento, and others. See the full list in the manual.

How do I connect the steering wheel control cable?

Plug the 3.5mm SWC cable into the module and into the radio's SWC port. For Kenwood and JVC, use the Blue/Yellow wire. If not used, insulate the wire or plug.

What does the LED on the module indicate?

Blue LED off means no power; check voltage. Red LED flashes when pressing SWC buttons. If no flash, check connections and DIP settings.

Is the antenna adapter included?

Yes, the package includes a Hyundai/Kia antenna adapter.

Do I need to program the steering wheel controls?

The module is pre-programmed, but some aftermarket radios require SWC button programming via their menu. Check your radio's manual.

Can I use this module with a non-listed aftermarket radio?

It supports most brands, but if your brand is not listed, try the "Most off-brand" DIP setting (OFF OFF ON ON). Ensure your radio has SWC input capability.

What if my vehicle has factory navigation with amplifier?

For 2008-2010 Veracruz with Nav and AMPs, use model SWRHK-65P instead.

How do I wire the SWC if my radio uses wires instead of a 3.5mm jack?

Cut off the 3.5mm plug, connect RED to SWC Key 1, WHITE to SWC Key 2, and SHIELD to SWC Ground. Some radios only have SWC1 and SWC2; then shield is not needed.
